Prashasya:
“It is fairly simple to get involved with the Academy. If interested, you can dive into the world of Salesforce without having any prior experience. You can be a fresh graduate, ready for a career change, or have some curiosity about diving into the data world. But again, no prior experience is needed...& everyone is welcome to apply!”
Prashasya:
“We look for candidates who have at least a bachelor's degree, or even a master's degree, in statistics, math, science, or something along those lines. We can teach Salesforce, & we can teach consulting, but there is some level of technical experience we look for.”
Prashasya:
“We have a lot of applicants who have different majors...or who have worked for five years in the world of computational analytics, or some other career. No matter what, there is potential to be a great fit.”
“In just three to six months, Academy graduates are getting recognized & are building trust with their project managers. PMs are excited about the new cohort...so that is a success for me.”
Academy graduates have also been awarded 'Best Employee' & 'Best Rookie' by NeuraFlash!
Eric:
“We can teach you the technical stuff. The people who succeed at NeuraFlash are thoughtful, inquisitive, & self-starters; however you express that is up to you.”
Raven:
"It takes a lot of hard work, but it's very rewarding hard work because this is an accelerated program to get ramped up in just three short months. But, it's 100% worth it because you leave equipped to do the work that needs to be done without much confusion."
Eric:
"I was a field director & deputy campaign manager for a series of different races, including City Council, State Assembly, Senate & US Congress."
Raven:
"Before I was at NeuraFlash, I was at Verizon Media...I was doing IT & help desk work...I was there for just about three years, & before that, I was at Apple."
Eric:
“Salesforce has made learning the platform relatively easy compared to many other software platforms. The Academy takes that foundation & provides an experience that really gets you to a professional level in a short amount of time.”
Raven:
“Our cohort allowed for me to meet different people at all different levels, & we had that baseline there. As time went on, if I needed support in something, I knew who was a really great subject matter expert to reach out to, & that initial communication was there; it wasn't such a cold contact.”
